DS bug #6310880 has been fixed both in the DS5.2patch5 official release and in several Sun Support hotfixes built on top of 5.2patch4. Or, the fix only provides protection against newly created entries, it does not protect the entries which were already existing inside the DS database before the bug fix was put in place. This can lead to undesired results, among which potential err=67 replication halt events. This entry provides a detailed analysis on why this happens and how to safely protect from such potential undesired effects.
